Re: Fluid AA Offseason Rankings: 2024-25

Just hope it isn't so top heavy in AA next year. Everyone pretty much knew it was going to be the 2AA and 6AA winner in the state title game by the time the calendar flipped to 2024. Not to steer too off-topic, but cracks in the foundation that take away from the fan experience that need to be addr...

Re: Edina's Michael Risteau

It started at the Hlinka a few years ago. Some major character issues - where he was almost sent home. Fast forward to this year - left for BCHL - then came home - but didn't go back to BSM. Why? So 3 teams in 8 months. Heard some things on why he finished on 4th line this year - but watching him in...

Farmington added. This could be a solid job - great group of Bantam AA's coming up in the weakest AA section.

Re: Thanks Lou

Heard his 60th will be his last. Wow! Anyhow, if you liked him, what were some of the announcing teams you liked? I was a big fan of him and Shaver, but to be honest I haven't watched him in years as I've been attending regularly. I'm sure there are more side kicks but can't remember their names. C...

Nobody at that fish wrap should be picking an all metro team. Especially when the never leave Hennipen County.
It's a panel of coaches that vote for the teams.

Re: Section 4AA

You're talking about the what, I'm curious about the why. What they do is play every conference team twice. Why do they do that, especially when it' a large conference? It's not rocket science, play the better teams twice, or even three times, and play the lesser teams once. Even the better confere...

Re: Section 4AA

I'm surprised that White Bear's schedule is as light as it is, year after year. Maybe the new coach will beef it up a bit. The bears play a Suburban East-heavy schedule. They play every other team in their conference (8 of them) twice - which is 16 of 25 possible games or 2/3 of their available sch...

Re: AA Rankings for 12/3/23

My eyes got a little big when I saw Rosemount. The last time I remember them being anywhere is back in the Tier 2 days when they had a terrible season record but got hot at playoff time and ended up losing to Greenway 6-1 in the championship game at Target Center. That was when Gino Guyer from Gree...

looks like the link that had the elite league rosters posted has now been removed.

O/U 10 changes from the initial rosters when they are re-posted?
